The aging process leads to diverse changes in the human organism, including in autonomic system modulation. In this study, we calculated indices of HRV in frequency (power spectral density, PSD) and time (the impulse response (IR) method) domains, using data from healthy young and elderly volunteers (Fantasia database from Physionet). The results obtained showed that aging leads to an attenuation of vagal modulation of elderly individuals when compared to young volunteers.
